@Bugreporter: Redirect what to what? Please be clearer and do follow https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_report_a_bug . Clicking your first link goes to incubator, for example. That's not mentioned at all in this ticket. And how is the "Define" namespace in your example link related at all to this?

The task title is pretty clear now. It's about redirecting everything non-namespaced to a namespace.

@Bugreporter Can you confirm to me that consensus of the related task (https://sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_collogue:Define_namespace#RFC:_Adopt_Define_namespace) is also valid for this one?
Plus I don't think (perhaps I'm wrong) that there is a config variable for this in mediawiki. So it would require software developing. (or varnish tricks if it's only to redirect views of unresistant pages).

The discussion is the same

It would be done in the Apache config rather than MediaWiki config I think.

Note sco.wiktionary.org/wiki/ and sco.wiktionary.org should be redirected a valid title (sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/Define: is not a valid title).

The original main page is at Define:Main Page so I suggest redirecting it to that

The swap of Traffic for Traffic-Icebox in this ticket's set of tags was based on a bulk action for all such tickets that haven't been updated in 6 months or more. This does not imply any human judgement about the validity or importance of the task, and is simply the first step in a larger task cleanup effort. Further manual triage and/or requests for updates will happen this month for all such tickets. For more detail, have a look at the extended explanation on the main page of Traffic-Icebox . Thank you!
